Yi Mei Ren Wu Liang Mountain Yunnan Black Tea

Yi Mei Ren Wu Liang Mountain Yunnan Black Tea

from $15.00

This Tea bears similarity to both and oolong and a black tea in its fragrance and taste.  A Yunnan large-leaf varietal is used and the tea is wilted and oxidized like a black tea, but for a longer period of time with several intervals of vigorously shaking the leaves.  This promotes more thorough wilting/oxidation and leads to it's darker color.

The brewed tea is highly aromatic with a chocolaty sweet taste with no noticeable astringency.  The tea liquor is super clear and deep gold with tinges of red if brewed longer.  Due to the higher level oxidization this tea can be stored for several years with subtle changes in aroma and flavor.
